Join the Michael’s Cause team and participate in the 2026 NYC Marathon, scheduled for Sunday, November 1, 2026. Michael’s Cause is dedicated to raising awareness for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, directing all funds toward cutting-edge medical and scientific research for improved treatments and a future cure. Most individuals affected by Duchenne lose the ability to walk between the ages of 8 and 12.
Join our team in 2026 and run in solidarity with those who struggle to run and walk. This marks the 9th consecutive year that Michael’s Cause proudly sponsors the race. Runners will receive guaranteed entry into the marathon, access to the NY Road Runners online training program, and exclusive Michael’s Cause running apparel.
Participants are required to raise $4,000 through social media and other donation efforts. To help support your fundraising, we will also host a raffle.
